Mr.. Theodore Roosevelt is perhaps
the most distinguished New York re-
publican Of the young generation.
This fact adds importance and inter
est to the following sentence taken
from an article written by him and
recently published "rhe world has
never seen better soldiers than those
who followed Lee, ard their leader
will undoubtedly rank as. without
any exception, the very greatest Of
all the great chiettains that the En-
glsh speaking people haze brought
lorth-and this. although the last
and chief of his antagonists may him
self claim to stand as the iull equal
of Marlborough aud Wellington.
The day may yet come when South
ern heroes will be national heroes,
with those who fought on the other
side.

A st. Joseph MO special of last
Saturday says
An illustration of the Gckleness Of
fortune was supplied in this city to-
day when J. +. Mcknight, the stran-
ded California millionaire, appeared
before the mayor, and after repre-
senting that he had not dollar in
the world, begged a railroad pass to
Kansas City, which was given him.
lie left st. Joseph this afternoon and
is bound for New York City, where
he says, he has relatives who will
care for him this winter Mcknight
was partner of the millionaire Me-
Key, in California, and for several
years was mayor of Oakland and one
OF the most prominent men on the
Pacific coast He was a personal
friend to the elder Bennett in New
York when the latter had his office
on Nassau street, and was Jay
Gould's friend when Gould was
brought into prominence by James
Fisk. lie had met and been on in
innate terms with all the great men
of his day, and tells interesting anec-
dotes concerning them all. lie lost
his millions short time ago, and is
quite cheerful, though he hasn't a
dollar. He says he will return to
California next year and build an
other fortune His dress was seedy
to-day, and as he sat in the passen-
ger coach talking to an acquaintance
he was eating bun and slice Of
cheese that cost him FIVE cents. All
his personal effect were lied in big
red handkerchief, which lay beside
him on the seat. After he had fin
ished his meal he lighted an old
black pipe, and seemed to enjoy it
hugely. In his downfall he retains,
of course, his polished manners, anu
is still in conversation and deport-
ment the same elegant gentleman he
was when he could draw his cheek

date for governor. At Cincinnati,
the Enquirer reports fully 5000
people listened to Governor Goroon's
address, and cheered and applauded

more went down the hill disappoint-

hall. The opinion was generally and
freely expressed among the audience

to him. He thrills and electrifes
them. At times he is low-voiced and
gentle and sweet as the murmuring
of a placid brook; then again be is

as the angry, storm-tossed billow.
He is a finished elocutionist and a
true orator. His stage presence is

address the immense audience sat
spellbound. During the two hours
and over that he spoke not a single
soul left the hall. At times the en-
thusiasm of his hearers was indlscrib-
able. Every sentence or two through
out the speech was punctuated by
cheers and applause. At times these
noisy demonstrations of approval
continued for three and four minutes.
